Problem
My issue is I like to have my system sounds (including the bell) set to 10% of System Volume.
I have already customised the bell wav for my terminal profiles and this works well, its just the bell sound is too loud and I can't set it to 10% volume because Windows doesn't remember the volume mixer setting for Windows Terminal after it restarts (unlike other apps).
Some undesirable workarounds:
bellStylebut this is not what I want to do.Steps to reproduce
Current volume mixer:

These settings work perfectly for Command Prompt shell (my system sounds is at 10% and my bell sound is quiet).
However, for other WT profiles it does not work the same:
Post volume mixer:

Expected Behavior
Volume remains the same as previously set value in Volume Mixer.
Actual Behavior
Volume is reset (back to 100%) in Volume Mixer.
